| - Overpriced and sub-par.
This place is a pass. Visiting Calgary, I thought I'd pop in for a shwarma. First thing I noticed is that there was nothing on the spinners, as you would expect to see in a shwarma joint. I asked if the meat they were serving was from yesterday and the owner got very indignant and insisted that they come in at 6 am to cook the meat. I should have known this was BS, but I ordered a shwarma plate anyway. It was tiny, not fresh tasting, and like 12 bucks. They didn't even give me pita with it, though to be fair when I asked for some they gave me some stale pita, making a big deal about how it was on the house for me since I was visiting from out of town. He sort of implied that because I was from Vancouver I wouldn't really know much about Shwarma since we don't really have it there, which I thought was pretty funny.
Anyway, the owner is pushy and overbearing, the food is meh, and way overpriced. My girlfriend had a similar experience. Should have asked her about the place before trying it.
